i still see you...

...hidden under there

you can't think you simply blend in - do you? even though your colors are remarkably similar - the earth is funny that way - it helps to disguise - to protect - yet i'd heard this little one as i walked - heard the fluttering of wings on leaves in the undergrowth on the wooded floor - i knew he was there - it was only a matter of seeing him - and then...

do you see the other? do you?

i was also out trying to find green... i'm so longing for spring - the fresh - the new - that early bright first burst of new green that occurs - you know what i'm talking about, right? well - do you see - here... it's here - look closely, people - i've been waiting for spring - it's arrived - amidst the cold - the snow - the ice... it's been working its way through - sneaking itself in - in bits and pieces - but there's no denying it now - for it's plain to see - i've captured it... with both a robin and the fact of seeing bright green around him - on the tips of bushes - and trees - spring has sprung - really arrived - regardless of what the weather is doing - and that, my friends - makes it...

a

happy day.....
